QPR: 5 Reasons Why R's Will Definitely Get Relegated

3. Too Many Players

Since QPR€™s return to the Premier League two seasons ago they have used a staggering 50 different players in league games: that€™s two squad€™s worth of players and you don€™t need me to tell you that it€™s way too many players for one team to have used. I mentioned money as my first point in this article and this is the other negative of spending all that money - you get in a huge amount of players that don€™t fit in the team or underperform and some that are just no good to begin with, making the overspending look even more wasteful. Having 3 managers in less than 2 years will of course not help their cause either, as each manger would bring in the players he liked and felt the team needed or in Mark Hughes' case played in teams he used to play for. Then there's that issue of so few players brought in have been sold on by QPR. They have tried to loan players out to clear up the wage bill and currently have an entire team's worth of players and most of the subs out on loan, which is a scary number of players to own and yet not have any use for. When QPR go down you sense there will be a massive fire sale of talent that they cannot afford to keep or that don€™t want to play in the Championship. I couldn€™t believe either stat when I first read them wondering how QPR could keep bringing all those players in and still not have the best combination of players to keep them up. So it€™s a massive problem and one levelled at staff and managers for not trying to offload some players and also for thinking that the answer to the threat of relegation is to keep bringing more players in.
